If you are the bride then you have a lot to consider while picking your outfit. Look at some of the best Kerala saree designs that we’ve curated for you!
When it comes to sarees from south India, women cannot stop gushing over them. Such is the craze over these traditional garments. The Tussar silk, the Kanjeevaram saree design, the colours used, everything is unique in its own way, making it extremely popular among women from not just India but the whole world. All the states in the southern part of India have different designs and colours that they prefer.

In Kerala, the most popular saree design is the Kasavu, which is quite similar to silk but not exactly the same. It is popularly worn as both the bridal and non-bridal outfit. The sarees do not have too much heavy embroidery and are lovely even without the use of any mirror or stone works, making the sarees extremely lightweight and easy to carry.
Now that you know the basics of what most of the sarees from Kerala look like, let us delve into some of the best bridal and non-bridal Kerala saree designs.
